    I live in San Antonio, where we have a huge number of 110F days. The heat part, if that's what the exothermic stuff is for-- is taken care of here--if I could ship you 40% of our entire net heat here, they'd build a memorial to me.
    As it is, nobody here would touch their car with the bare skin, because it will literally burn you. Crayons and plastic objects left in the car melt and warp, open the door and you can smell the carpet cooking. You can rig up, in about fifteen minutes, a solar collector (such as the parabolic mirror, or solar cooker, or fresnel lens, or whatever) that will knock your socks off. I guarantee you can fry chicken with it.
    The problem, it seems to me (as you've mentioned before, Rob), is the cost of the Peltier device to perform this conversion at any meaningful scale.
    So here's the big ask. Do you think it would be possible to create LARGE SCALE peltier-like devices on the cheap, to make USE of all this ridiculous heat we have?
    (I will happily send half of my proceeds to Great Britain.)

    The largest waste heat suppliers that I have found are Brake disc foundries. I proposed the generation of hydrogen to the brake disc foundry, but they laughed at me...However...Steam blown through Iron particles generates enormous amounts of hydrogen rich steam....An old book that I have "Industrial Hydrogen" by Hugh S. Taylor D. Sc 1917. clearly outlined how to create hydrogen from steam and Iron. A brake disc foundry has both waste heat and scrap iron...Which would be a modern way to move toward a hydrogen economy. The issue at heart is simply this...Corporations are ran by stupid idiots.

      The danger associated with high temperature, iron oxide, and hydrogen is why they laughed. It would never fly with any level of safety. The same reason every petroleum plant exploded is because they use a spark wall to re-crack the gas. Then oxygen creeps in somewhere and the plant blows up. Look into it, it's very interesting.

      The amounts of iron grindings from manufacturing processes is minisculte compared to the amount of hydrogen needed, also waste iron is currently recycled so diverting it to make hydrogen will just raise iron smelting needs, and iron smelting is carbon intensive. Their is stupid idiocy in the world but one should do their own homework before accusing others.

    • @grinchyface
      @grinchyface 4 месяца назад +3

      I don't understand why a brake disc foundry would want to produce iron oxide.
      They spent all this money popping the oxide off of iron, why would they spend money to reverse the process to produce hydrogen?
      Then what would they do with the iron oxide? Send it back to a refinery and pay them to turn it back into iron at a greater expense energetically and economically?
      No matter how that's sliced, the physics don't work. And if the physics don't work, the economics can't work.

    The exothermic properties of Soda Lime are used in a device called "The Little Dragon". Developed by cave rescue teams, as a spin off from diving re-breathers, to prevent/treat hypothermia.
    Its a container holdind a quantity of soda lime into which is squirted a small ammount of CO2 - from a home brew keg - the CO2 activates the soda lime, and the heat produced is used to pre-heat outside air, which is inhaled by the casualty, which helps to raise their internal core temperature.

    Some RUclips creators have THE BEST viewership with the most interesting and informed views. If there was a RUclips comment reader app/site, I'd spend even more time reading them than I already do.
    These "heat difference gradient" devices and methods are everywhere with great variety as Robert shows in his vids. Business would prefer we only use their "commercially profitable" products to supply energy/heating. Heat-pumps ("reverse fridges") and Stirling Engines would definitely make a massive contribution to reducing fossil fuel use (though they would possibly enlarge the chemical/chemistry industries ... and increase their energy use).
    Commenters have mentioned ways of producing hydrogen for the nascent ("burgeoning"?) Hydrogen Economy. We should all remember that the processes we take for granted today had to be worked on (and then have been developed and refined) over decades (and centuries).
    Robert produces absorbing content with ideas and knowledge I don't get from any other (engineering) channel. Just hope he never has to do those cringeworthy in video ads like some of my other favourite creators are now doing.

    notable issues, including with other 'no-cost' energy sources, ir energy density and source amount. Example: these would take an amount of zeolite equivalent to the size of a shed to power a house unless you're really frugal. And to recharge by drying in the sun would take either a long time or a huge area, as your sun collector would need to collect enough energy to dry the zeolite or whatever in under a day. And you'd need enough storage and water for a few days.
    So now you need to roof over half an acre...

That 'couple of tonnes' could still take up a tennis court or more, and if you're using sun-drying only you need a bunch more than that.
      Now, if you set it up with sun-concentrator mirrors and vertical panels it'll take us a lot less space, but you're adding cost and infrastructure. However, you may need to do it that way to get the energy back out usefully.

    I think it may be a solution to my problem.
    I have a summer house. It has floor heating to keep it above freezing in winter. Heat comes from a large wood burning boiler and is stored in a 1000 liter water heat battery.
    The idea was to heat it up once a week if winter would be cold (like -25C) and once for 2 weeks when it would be around freezing point.
    The problem is the boiler and battery are stored in the old cowshed. Temperature there is low (-5 when there is -20 outside) heat battery dumps it's heat to the cowshed. Especially when it is almost fully charged.
    As I have a lot of wood ash I can have plenty of potassium carbonate and use it as a second layer (like once water battery would be above 65 degree I can start drying KCO3 and once it would drop below 15 I can put water into it.

    Chemistry is cool. Still, simply burying a pipe 8 ft underground for about 50 ft solves the heating and cooling of a home with a simple fan. This is great, but not practical for its cost and complexity if one has a 10ft by 10ft area to dig. Coiling the pipe, depending on the diameter of course, will determine how large the hole needs to be dug. Not water, just air being radiantly cooled or heated by the earth. Super simple and much cheaper. Sometimes people just over complicate things.

      Many countries already have pumped hydroelectric storage as an offsite option. Obviously the Netherlands is not going to be able to to do that, but a heat storage system is going to be just one option.

Yes, there are similar and analogous aspects between different domains, it's even reflected in the math, but there are also important differences, important enough to warrant different language, models, and tools to study each individually.

    If they keep the cells under hard vacuum and added a steam capture and condensation/water tank unit per cell then adding water to the second cell would dryout and thus recharge the first cell and so on in a series you could ripple on forever.

      Love the idea of rippling the reaction, but I think it would be quite complicated and/or energy consuming to keep the vacuum when water starts to evaporate because of the expansion rate of water into gas is something like 1:1700.

    Now, think of zeolite deliveries, dried by the waste heat of the local pizza joint, bakeries, and other waste heat sources, including local entrepreneurs building small scale solar drying facilities.

    Unless its's just coming up out of the ground in endless amounts (aka Geothermal) heat at a few hundred degrees is useless for power generation as per Carnot heat engine efficiency, so the only appliction for these exothermic reactions is direct heat usage. Only a small number of industrial processes (food processing mostly) can make use of heat at that temperature, which means the home heating market is all that's left. And even their I only really see water based exthermic reactions being attractive as a backup heat source, if you have had a lull in renewable energy production in winter (the infamous dunkelflaute as the Germans say). But the idea of moving the stuff around back and forth to industrial sites for recharge is a non-starter, better to recharge it at home by simply venting the homes normal exhast air over the materials to dry them again. Zeolites can be dried by room temperature air of sufficiently low humidity, it just takes a long time, but this is ok in a backup system which will be used just a few times a year.

    • @101jchristensen
      @101jchristensen 4 месяца назад +1

      Sadly, no 😊. Chemical reactions occurred between individual molecules of the two things reacting. So let's say the reaction is 1 molecule of zeolite reacts with 1 molecule of water and gives off heat. If I add 100 molecules of water to 100 molecules of zeolite, all the water and all the zeolite will have reacted and additional water will have no zeolite to react with.
      Now If I started off with 200 molecules of zeolite and added 100 molecules of water, THEN adding more water would produce more heat. But at some point, the water molecules will run out of zeolite molecules. At that point the zeolite will need to be dried out so it can be reused to produce heat. Does that make sense?
